Redding 3 die set

The premium is just a normal die set (54) and a seating stem (44) and a carbide expander ball set (38) for a total of 136. That means you essentially get the carbide balls for free in either the 2 or 3 die kits.
Now, it’s the micrometer seater and not the competition seater that has the sliding sleeve. If you don’t care about that then the premium is a good value compared to outfitting them yourself. If you want the sliding stem feature like in the Redding comp and Forster dies the premium won’t have that.

It supposed to align the case and bullet with one another before encountering the seating stem instead of letting them be loose until it hits the stem and possibly getting seated in a bit crooked. You can still load concentric ammo without it, its just one of those things that seems like a nice idea.
